Natural light controls and guides in buildings. Energy saving for electrical lighting, reduction of cooling load (2014)
Journal Article
Gago, E., Muneer, T., Knez, M., & Köster, H. (2015). Natural light controls and guides in buildings. Energy saving for electrical lighting, reduction of cooling load. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 41, 1-13. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rser.2014

The residential sector is responsible for approximately a quarter of energy consumption in Europe. This consumption, together with that of other buildings, mainly from the tertiary sector, makes up 40% of total energy consumption and 36% of CO2 emiss...

The estimation of a driving cycle for Celje and a comparison to other European cities (2014)
Journal Article
Knez, M., Muneer, T., Jereb, B., & Cullinane, K. (2014). The estimation of a driving cycle for Celje and a comparison to other European cities. Sustainable Cities and Society, 11, 56-60. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scs.2013.11.010

Due to rapidly increasing numbers of vehicles, growing traffic congestion and the very limited use of emission control strategies, motor vehicles are emerging as the largest source of urban air pollution globally. The effectiveness of any control str... Read More about The estimation of a driving cycle for Celje and a comparison to other European cities.

Monthly averaged-hourly solar diffuse radiation model for the UK (2014)
Journal Article

Monthly-averaged daily global irradiation data are now easily available from NASA website. Using established models it is then possible to decompose the daily to averaged-hourly global irradiation. The missing link so far has been hourly averaged dif... Read More about Monthly averaged-hourly solar diffuse radiation model for the UK.

A sustainable transport solution for a Slovenia town (2014)
Journal Article
Knez, M., Celik, A. N., & Muneer, T. (2015). A sustainable transport solution for a Slovenia town. International Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies, 10(4), 386-392. https://doi.org/10.1093/ijlct/ctu007

Authorities in Slovenia and other EU member states are confronted with problems of city transportation. Fossil-fuel-based transport poses two chief problems—local and global pollution, and dwindling supplies and ever-increasing costs. An elegant solu...
